Welcome to the NUnitLite Project

NUnitLite is a a lightweight test framework for .Net, based on a subset of NUnit's features. It will use minimal resources and will run under .Net 1.0, 1.1 and 2.0, Mono 1.0 and 2.0 profiles and the versions 1 and 2 of the compact framework.

NUnitLite is an Open Source project, available under the Open Source License ("OSL") 3.0.

Why an NUnitLite?

Since it's introduction, NUnit has continued to add more features every year. It's getting a bit complicated - too complicated for some purposes.

Basically, we want NUnitLite to be a very simple NUnit, one that could be included as source right with the tests themselves. It should implement a subset of the features of full NUnit. It can also serve as a test bed for a few new approaches that will probably find their way into the next version of NUnit itself.

The name NUnitLite is, of course, inspired by Mike Feathers' CppUnitLite.
